I am not able to connect to a foxpro database on a machine other than the one running IIS. I read a Microsoft KB article that said you must put matching permissions on the anonymous user for the virtual dir, and the folder containing the .dbf file, or move the .dbf to the machine running IIS. Moving the database is not an option. I used my own network account as the anonymous user account which has admin rights on the machine with the db. Everytime I try to connect, ADO tells me that the .dbf file I am trying to query does not exist. Does anyone know of any workarounds for this problem?

Thank You
 
If you use it in local host, check connection string and path to DBF files...
